Early the next morning, Brother Xie took Xiao Ni back to the county town. No one knew what happened to him and Sun Lanjun later.
Anyway, Sun Lanjun didn’t come back.
Xie's mother did not go to the county town either.
In the evening, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi brought back two electric fans, one for Xie's father and mother.
Xie's father and mother were both shocked. "Why did you buy an electric fan?"
Xie Qingxiao: "The weather is too hot, an electric fan will cool it down a bit."
"Then you can just buy it for yourselves. Why buy it for me and your father?" Xie's mother said hurriedly, her heart aching. How much does it cost?
"Yes, we don't need it. We don't feel hot," Xie's father also said. They couldn't even turn on the lights, so how could they turn on the electric fan? Buying an electric fan is a waste of money and electricity bills.
"My wife asked me to buy it," Xie Qingxiao meant that if you want to blame someone, blame Lin Xiangyi.
Of course, the main reason was because he knew that Mr. and Mrs. Xie would not blame Lin Xiangyi.
He also saw through the expressions of Xie's father and mother and said, "Just use it after you buy it. I can earn money now, so I don't need you to save that little bit of money."
Thank you, father and mother: "..." They looked at Lin Xiangyi.
Lin Xiangyi was very calm: "Yes, Dad and Mom, just use it when you buy it. Qingxiao is like this. The more we spend money, the more motivation he has to make money."
Thank you, father and mother: "..."
Xie Qingxiao: “…” Can you still persuade people like this?
"Okay," Xie's father and mother were at a loss whether to laugh or cry. They were deeply moved by the two children's filial piety and hard work, and finally accepted the gifts.
"By the way, Dad and Mom, my wife and I also want to dig a well in the yard," Xie Qingxiao said again.
"Digging a well?" Xie's father and mother were surprised.
"Well," Xie Qingxiao said, "we use a lot of water now, so it's more convenient to dig a well."
Xie's father and mother pondered for a moment and surprisingly did not object.
"If you want to dig a well, then dig it. Our water consumption is really high right now. Digging a well will make life easier for my sister-in-law and Pengfei," said Xie's father and mother. "It will also be more convenient for us."
Xie's father and mother thought that the well was necessary and would also facilitate business and money making, so naturally they had no objection.
Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi laughed.
"Leave this to me," Xie's father said, "I know there is a village next door that has people and guys who specialize in digging wells. They used to go to various brigades to help dig wells, which brought a lot of income to their village. I know the secretary of their village, and I will go and ask tomorrow if I can invite them to come over to help dig wells."
That couldn't be better.
After hearing what Xie's father said, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi handed the matter over to Xie's father.
The next day, Xie's father went to look for someone, and that afternoon they came to look at the site and said there was water under their yard and they could dig a well.
Xie's father negotiated the price with the other party and settled on 160 yuan for the all-inclusive package, and the construction started in full swing on the third day.
The Xie family provided food for the workers, and the meals they provided were pretty good, so the workers worked very hard. The well was dug in just a few days, but the water quality still needed to be settled, so it would take a few days before it could be drunk.
Lin Xiangyi readily settled the price with the other party, but in the evening of the same day, Xie's mother came to her with fifty yuan in her pocket.
"Mom, what do you mean?" Lin Xiangyi said.
"Will we be able to use the water if we don't dig a well? Your father and I also need to use this water. I can't let you spend so much money. It's not easy for you to earn money. Xiangyi, don't be polite to me. Just accept it," Xie's mother stuffed the money into Lin Xiangyi's arms.
The main reason is that Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi also bought them electric fans and now dug a well. Such a large expense, although it is Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi's filial piety, they cannot spend all their money so righteously.
"mother……"
"Hurry up and take it," Xie's mother said angrily, "You are good to your parents, and your parents want to be good to you. It's not much, I hope you don't mind."
"Mom, you just like to joke, how could I dislike it? I'm so touched by your kindness, so I'll accept it. Thank you, mom," Lin Xiangyi couldn't refuse and simply accepted it.
But she soon smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'll be thinking about it these two days and it's time to pay you last month's wages. Then you'll have money to receive."
The twenty-day appointment is due the day after tomorrow. Lin Xiangyi originally planned to get her salary tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and then take a day off the day after tomorrow.
She also had to take Xie Qingxiao to see a Chinese doctor and have him take her pulse so that he would know that he was really going to be a father and should stop thinking about that all day.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiangyi remembered the way Xie Qingxiao looked at her these two days.
As time got closer, the look in his eyes when he looked at her was truly as fierce as a wolf or a tiger...If Lin Xiangyi didn't have the amulet with her, she would have been worried about her waist that night.
Cough cough!
When Xie's mother heard about the salary payment, she couldn't stop smiling. Although she refused to be paid by Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi at first, after accepting it, she couldn't help but look forward to it.
This was the first time in her life that she had received wages, one dollar a day, which amounted to more than twenty dollars. Just thinking about it made her excited.
"Okay, okay, then I'll wait for you to send it," Xie's mother said with a smile.
Lin Xiangyi looked at her expectant expression and couldn't help but smile. Since her mother-in-law was so happy, she decided not to wait until the day after tomorrow and post it tomorrow.
night.
Xie Qingxiao returned to the room and saw Lin Xiangyi still calculating the accounts, so he walked over and asked, "Hasn't today's account been calculated?"
"Today's bill has been calculated, but I only roughly noted down the wages of my parents, my aunt, and Pengfei. I don't think I made a mistake. I want to recalculate them," Lin Xiangyi looked up at Xie Qingxiao and said, "By the way, there is something I want to discuss with you. We will pay the wages tomorrow, and then we will have a day off the day after tomorrow?"
Just when Xie Qingxiao was about to say yes after hearing the first half of the sentence, he heard the second half.
He has been thinking about the day after tomorrow every day during this period and is very sensitive to that day.
She actually said she would take a day off the day after tomorrow? Could it be to prepare for the evening?
Xie Qingxiao couldn’t help but think.
Who is Lin Xiangyi? She knows how much Xie Qingxiao is looking forward to the day after tomorrow. She reminds her every now and then how many days are left until the 20th day, as if she is afraid that she will forget or regret it.
The look in his eyes now changed, and she guessed what he was thinking.
She couldn't help but glare at him angrily, trying to explain: "...I was just thinking, we have been doing business for many days, and no one has had a formal break. It just so happens that wages are paid tomorrow, and everyone will have a day off the day after tomorrow. Let them be happy. If you make money, you have to give them time to spend, right..."
Lin Xiangyi's voice gradually became lower because she realized that the more she explained, the more obvious it seemed.
